I came across some photos from a law enforcement officer. The camera was set in the trees in order to prevent people from entering a certain location and that’s all of the info I can give you. The officer sent me the photo’s asking me if I knew what it was because they are baffled as to what it is. This is an area that does not have bears and the image does not appear to be a man. Coincidentally it appears to be the same thing Bob Garrett and crew captured in Texas with the drone.


Brian M
Got a worse receding hairline than me.
Tyler D
Right haha, look at them deltoids. These pictures are very interesting. Some of the clearer photos I’ve seen in this topic. Looking at this thing you can completely understand why they are called Bigfoot
Tyler D
Some people believe these pictures to be a hoax, I haven’t heard of any encounters of a sasquatch with a receding hairline. Not saying it doesn’t happen. Not sure how I feel about em since there’s not a whole lot of information surrounding these photos. A bit hard to tell what exactly is goin on here
Scott Perry
How do we know it’s the same as Bobs drone pics? Has he made them available to view yet?
John T
Yeah. Where can we see the pictures?
Mark R
look at the toes and fingers…
June P
Yeah, and the eye sockets. I guess these were taken at night, maybe. Someone would have to know that the camera was up there in order to hoax a Sasaquatch, but it begs the question, why would anyone dress as a Sasquatch for a random game cam???
James A
Doesnt look bulky enough to be real, hair is too heavy, no muscle definition. Gut feeling says fake
James D
Gut feeling says fake-yea OK, let me see now, here’s the hoaxers thinking; FIRST I need a sasquatch costume, I’ll just head on over to Taget or Walmart and get one, wait where DO you even GET a Sasquatch costume? OK maybe a Halloween store-if there’s one even open within the state lines -check. Next I need to go into a place that is clearly posted a NO TRESPASSING area and then walk around in the middle of the night on the outside chance that there may just be a hidden camera somewhere. It doesn’t matter if someone may shoot me-it’ll be SO WORTH THE RISK, besides I have nothing better to be doing than walking around in the woods in a costume that NOBODY has to rent inside an area that NOBODY is crazy enough to walk around in the middle of the night. Somebody please show me a costume rental store with a suit like this one please.

You can buy several different Sasquatch costumes online, ranging from cheap, generic 50s Gorilla-looking ones, to $300-400 ones (it was one of these that the Georgia hoaxers used in 2007-2008), up to insane prices for custom made ones (which are not that rare that horror collectors actually pay for such one-of-a-kind costume props). I know this because the business I run oft makes use of highly immersive costuming in it’s productions, and I’ve dealt with some of the companies that produce and distribute them (they carry tons of things, not just Sasquatch-related obviously).
That said, it looks saggy in the way the hair sits on different parts of the body. I’m guessing it’s fake as well.
In fact, I think it’s likely the same costume used in the Georgia 2008 hoax, which was this –
http://www.thehorrordome.com/deluxe-sasquatch-bigfoot-halloween-costume.aspx
Notice the exaggerated toenails/fingernails? The receeding hairline and very distinctive way the hair surrounds the face? Hell, it even has the heavily knuckled toes (again, with exaggerated toenails).
Daniel D
Wow, these are some pretty interesting photos to say the least. Good eye Mark, i noticed that as well if it is a hoax it was well planned and elaborate as hell, lots of detail. I’m leaning toward this being a real creature, IMO. Id love to see those pics Bob and the boys got with the drone also.
Elizabeth E
Thank you for sharing these.
Anne W
Look at the foot on that thing.
Gene R
Interesting for conversation , although photographs will never be good enough .
Brian M
Like the right arm in second photo, looks long.
Robert P
It’s a Cajun
Elise B
So now we know where to put game cams. Up high in a tree, pointing down.
Joyce N
I’ve said that before. You gotta get it out of reach and pointing down . People thought I was crazy. But the light won’t be noticed as easily .
Mark H
I have always thought the game cams should be at least 12 feet high and angled toward the ground. I have seen 3 over the span of 50 years and I don’t want to see another one…there are things about this one that look like a costume. I can’t say that I am 100% sure it is fake though. I do think that to be able to say it is fake, you would have to seen a least 1 in your lifetime, just my opinion though.
Brian M
Mark, what don’t you like? I’ve not seen one, but this does look more “furry” than hairy, which doesn’t seem to fit descriptions.
Elise B

Definitely looks like someone in a costume. A cheap costume at that. Body just looks baggy like an Easter Bunny costume would look like. FAKE
Ryan m
Found it online. this appears to be the obvious suit used in this hoax.

Steven B
Ryan, you may be on to something. Maybe someone knew about the camera location and thought they’d try this. I was leaning toward non-hoax but then I got looking at the feet. The toe-nails in particular stand out. The definition of the toes and “whiteness” of the nails look exactly like those of the suit you spoke of:
http://plouffesnewhairdomlb.files.wordpress.com/2012/07/4-bigfoot-costume-and-sign.jpg?w=487
kevin h
yea that is the exact same costume I thought it was too. What really seemed odd to me was that the pictures looked like it was fluffy fur instead of 3″-5″ hair and the biggest part that sold me on it being that costume in the link is how the fur stops right before the fingers and toes in a straight line across the feet and hands. Its identical to the pictures of the costume as well as the pattern of hair on top of the head, you just cant see the cone shape of it because its a top down photo. I really wish it were real but I am 99% convinced it is the costume from the link above. Sad but True.
Bob G
My guys and I do have some video. It is much better and clearer than this. But Iam thanking this is a Sasquatch.
PATRICK
Thx Bob G. I do enjoy you on with Wes!
SantiamLady
Well……if Bob G thinks this is a real BF, that is good enough for me! ???????????? Perhaps it is saggy-looking with a receding hairline for the same reason it is whitish in color……its old? ????????
Bob? When can we see that video of yours? ???? Even just one still from it????? Please? ????????.
And, Wes? Can you give some idea where these photos were taken? Anywhere near Bob G’s stomping grounds down in Jurassic Park? Could this be the same white BF that Bob got on film?????
Thanks for everything BOTH of you do for us! ????????????
SantiamLady
BTW….. Chimpanzees also develop a marked receding hairline when they reach old age, if they survive that long.????
Ryan m
It also seems silly to me that a professional law enforcement officer would place a camera facing the ground at a 90 degree angle. This is an obvious hoax.
Wes
Federal Officer
James D
I’d like to hear what the agents have to say about the possibility that these are (like way too many here are saying) “fake” “a hoax”, I say absolutely real. Who do any of us know that would care to spend good money on a costume to use for what? To try and fool “idiots on YouTube” makes NO SENSE whatsoever.
Mike K
Normally placing your trail cam high in the tree pointing down doesn’t work. At least the several times I tried it , I had no luck. But I did get my cam marked with a x structure when I tried it?
SantiamLady
Perhaps this saggy-looking, white-haired, old fellow with his receding hairline, has BF Alzheimer’s, and doesn’t sense the infrared of the camera? He does look a little lost, like he doesn’t know what to do with himself.
SANDRA E
I don’t believe this is a hoax. If you’ve ever seen a pic of a bear taken with a night vision camera, the bear is rather dark. This isn’t, so I believe this is a white squatch or possibly grey. I doubt that there are many if any grey/white squatch suits in shops around the country. That’s MHO. Thanks Wes for posting!
Tennessquatch
Yeah, there are.

Brian M
Ryan’s link looks a good contender.
Scott
FAKE!!! It’s not even a good fake. OK..Let me see if I get the facts as they are laid out to us. This “police man” put a camera up in a tree to keep people from going into a certain area. So that suggest that he wanted people to see the camera. So out of all the game cams, trail watchers, and drones that are stealthy, and hidden in every other hollow log and brush pile, this guy puts one in plain site to deter people from trespassing on a certain piece of land, and that’s the camera that gets the money shot? I truly hope that whatever Bob Garret caught on his drone is leaps and bounds better than this cheesy attempt to waste my time and yours.
Mike B
Wow.so many people seem to be experts on bigfoot finger and toenails. It does resemble what I saw up in the wallowas,but we cant see it from a position that would help much. So,who ever made this costume aperently knows what a sasquatch realy looks like in order to make a realistic fake.
SantiamLady
Jeepers, Scott! ???? Lighten up, man. We’re all friends here. Play nice. ????
Tyler D
You’re absolutely right Patricia, there seems to be a little bit of hostility floating around
William C
Good catch on the costume, the feet and the head are exactly the same. Some people, pfft!
Eugene T
A really bad hoax, even the back story doesn’t make sense.
Elise B
There are boatloads of bigfoot costumes. It could be one of any number of such costumes. Sure. But whenever a picture looks real, that is what so many people automatically say…because they cannot think it’s real, not because it looks like a costume.
pam
But then again; if anyone was dumb enough to go to a place law enforcement has posted a cam to keep peeps out; IN A BIGFOOT COSTUME…they probably should be TAZED at least!!!
Any out there watch/listen to Paranormal Central guys bigfoot area stuff? Jeff and Allen place the game cams above 12′ height and some face just like this downward position. Last time they went to get the cams- they were gone. Never found them.
Crazy pics- too costume like to be real— too real to be dismissed.
SantiamLady
Well said, Pam! ????????????
John T
Losing some cred here with nothing to back it up.
Ronnie R
I could not give a definite “real” or “hoax” on these images…. I personally have never seen a squatch…. I would like to know how high the camera is in the tree and see if you can take a swag at the estimated size of the object in question. Also how often people are in the area.? Wes alluded that this may have come from a border patrol group, so there is traffic in the area (unwanted traffic, hence the camera). I am guessing that wearing a squatch outfit to hide you during a border crossing is the new fad… I think doing that is very dangerous…????
Brian W
…and people wonder why folks don’t want to share their good pics…
Teal
Bingo!
Scott
show me some good pics! I have seen some good ones, and I say that I think they are good. But I am not going to placate to anyone. I have seen the real thing…Anyone who has watched the Patterson Gimlin film has seen the real thing. There are a few others that I think are possibly authentic. But I know what the general public already thinks of us “believers”, therefore I have no time for hoaxers. If that makes me seem like a certain male appendage, well so be it. I apologize to no one for my opinion of certain pics and videos. There are certain things you just cannot fake, and if you have seen a real live Sasquatch, then you know what I am saying. . I don’t need someone thinking they are the next Martin Scorsese, trying to make a video to fool people, and become the next big internet phenom. My sighting changed my life…and not all for the good. I was really screwed up for a long time. It still drives a wedge between my father and me because he was there, and for various reasons he will not even discuss it with me. He seen the beast and yet he can still convince himself that it was anything other what he and I both know what it really was. So when people post sub-par pics, it strikes a nerve with me.
Ronnie R
I know that Bob G., Bear and Coonbo all possibibly have incredible photos and video of these creatures… I would like to hear their opinion as they have years of ” up close and personal” experience, and have seen multiple types and can provide a more educated estimate. Although without more detail or actually talking to the owners of the photos, they would probably (and correctly) decline to comment as they have not investigated personally. They do not strike me as a “armchair Squatch researchers” (which is all I can be at the moment), and prefer to have all the details before making any judgement.
SantiamLady
Look above, Ronnie. ???? Bob G posted that he believes these photos ARE a real Sasquatch. ????
Ronnie R
If Bob G. says it is a squatch, that is good enough for me.
Steven J
I am just not sure. I don’t have an issue with the scenario, as a cam overlooking a trail used by people makes sense as a way to mask the IR glow. After playing with filters on the images, I can clear it up, but I just can’t get past the hair line at the wrist or on the head. The image is too low quality to be able to say more. This definitely has a “troll” appearance.
As for hoaxer motivation…. there is plenty. And knowing that this is an area under watch would only encourage a prankster. Knowing the police are observing only makes it safer as there will be no hunters and cops don’t shoot first without warning. It could easily be one of the border patrol agents themselves hoaxing their co-workers. It would be a good and funny hoax, too.
Ronnie R
I could see that side Steven…. “Let’s get the rookie to go out and change batterys, but let’s play with his emotions first by showing him some photos that were taken at that site”…. If that is true, I’m sure they are having a blast with it In their inner circles.
I’ll just us my myth buster “plausible” stamp on it and move on until more info comes around.
Jan W
I have no idea, but I think it’s interesting that so many are calling “hoax” uniquivically. I am assuming the camera is in a fairly remote location and off the beaten path. I know of no one who would go to such lengths to play this kind of prank. And whoever said it before is right-who would want to share their photos with all the cries of hoax? A healthy dose of skepticism is fine, but I don’t think anyone can honestly tell for sure if these photos are real or fake, at least not by just viewing
darren i
i’ve seen a black and white video, it only lasts for maybe 5 seconds.of a really scary looking FIGURE the face looks scared and like it only has one eye. it’s looking up into the camera, really big chimpanzee looking thing, really thick set.just looks up then walks out of view.has anyone else seen the clip? and if so what do you think of that one? have you seen the clip WES?
SantiamLady
I found that Bigfoot trail cam video you’re talking about! ???? I don’t know how to attach Links, but it’s on YouTube as “Bigfoot on trail cam – UPDATED.”
At first I thought I was looking at an elderly Chimp, but then it walks off easily on two legs! ???????? Creepy!!!!
Then only other possibility is that it is old footage of a captive Chimp named “Oliver”. I think he’s dead now, but he was a VERY odd Chimp who had a habit of continually walking upright on two legs, and seemed completely comfortable doing so. The primate in the video actually looks an awful lot like Oliver in his later years…… Hmmmmm.????
darren i
the clip was on you tube,but their are that many to look at. i’ll have a look and see if i can find it, if i can i will post the details of the site so you can look at it yourselves and make your own minds up on it ???? It is creepy as hell looking and if it is a real creature and it’s out and about in your area, i’m glad i stay in SCOTLAND cause you can keep that one for yourselves my AMERICAN/CANADIAN friends.
Jason M
Another fakesquatch. Sheesh.
Larry W
I never will be able to understand these people that go out and publicly ID themselves as a BIGFOOT “hunter” or chaser or whatever and then claim that they have mind blowing evidence and won’t release it for fear of being ridiculed or people doubting it. It totally makes NO sense to me at all.
Sure, I can understand it if you are a private person that has a respectable career where others depend on your judgment and abilities, but a guy that goes on radio shows talking about Bigfoot for years..c’mon.
If you’ve got “evidence” fine, put it out or STOP talking about it.
SantiamLady
@ Larry…..
Hey, I’ve never seen a Sasquatch, let alone get a picture of it.
Have you???
I don’t think those of us who have not actually seen one up close, or been threatened and harassed by Gov Agents for what we’ve seen or what we know, should not criticize those who have endured these things.
Given what the Gov put Bob thru, he may have reasons, beyond fear of ridicule, for not releasing his photos for general consumption!
matthew D
Wes, have the camera operators measure the tree trunk diameter, in the widest places, and estimate height of camera from the ground. We should be able to get a good idea of size…and go from there. In the last episode where the hunter observed the injured squatch from the ridgeline in PA, ask him if that squatch could look straight up like this creature does. If all of those check out….hard to make case for a hoax. Looks real enough imo.
claire r
Im sorry but its a funny pic, is it trump looking for his toupe?
Ryan m
I think some folks on here are caught on the snag that “nobody perpetrating a hoax would randomly walk through the woods risking life and limb to possibly end up on a game cam somewhere.”
Well i am here to tell you that whoever hung the camera is the same person that is in the suit. They pointed it straight down in an effort to skew the view of the costume as to be less ambiguous, and create an image that looked like it might be real. That person is a hoaxer. They are attempting to hoax all of us. The exact same suit is linked in the above comments. If that isn’t enough proof for you, then you will simply see sasquatch anywhere, and every where.
Bart F
My thoughts exactly. And just because someone says they are an officer, federal or any other, doesn’t mean that they really are. A hoaxer lies about everything.
